Comprehensive DBT

Program Components and Structure
Comprehensive DBT at The Wise Center is built on the classic DBT model, which integrates four primary components:

• Individual Therapy: Clients engage in one-on-one sessions with skilled therapists to address personal challenges, set concrete goals, and work through issues at a deep, individualized level.
• Group Skills Training: These sessions focus on teaching core DBT skills—mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness—in a collaborative group setting.
• Telephone Coaching: Recognizing that crises do not always wait for the next session, our telephone coaching services provide clients with immediate support and guidance when needed.
• Therapist Consultation Teams: Our therapists regularly meet to ensure the highest standard of care, refine treatment plans, and support one another in delivering effective therapy.

Integrative and Holistic Approach
What sets our Comprehensive DBT program apart is its integrative approach. Not only do we focus on reducing harmful behaviors, but we also work to build a life that clients value. This means that in addition to managing symptoms, clients learn skills to:

• Develop healthier relationships
• Build a supportive network
• Enhance self-esteem and self-compassion
• Create meaningful life goals

Personalized Treatment Plans
Every client’s journey is unique, and our Comprehensive DBT program is designed with flexibility in mind. At The Wise Center, treatment plans are personalized to address the specific needs and goals of each individual. Whether you are struggling with mood disorders, borderline personality traits, or chronic stress, our team collaborates with you to tailor the therapy process in a way that is both empathetic and goal-oriented.

Building a Sustainable Path to Wellness
By engaging in Comprehensive DBT, clients gain a robust toolkit that serves them long after the therapy ends. The skills developed throughout the program help reduce the intensity of emotional pain, empower clients to handle crises more effectively, and encourage a proactive approach to life’s challenges. With a focus on both acceptance and change, Comprehensive DBT paves the way for lasting improvements in emotional well-being and overall quality of life.
